opal wing
zealous inlet
63 runs later
drifting citrus
a lot of the stuff for the routes involve just waiting for the game to give you the next convo
zealous inlet
i dunno that bouldy says nada
zealous inlet
i'll have to do more of that
plucky night
I dont have the convo to get the item to buy
Yeah. Thanatos in particular is a pain.
misty pollen
when can i gift the boulder ? already got around 5 nectar to sisyphus
plucky night
Every time he shows up I gotta be ready with a gift or its never gonna get done
opal wing
I want to try a different hera build than arte or dio/zeus
but i cant decide
probably athena?
ohh maybe I should go to gameplay
zenith leaf
athena zeus could be fun
drifting citrus
hunting blades hera kills, but that's only because hunting blades kills in general
zenith leaf
yeah hunting blades isn't really any better with hera than anything else
plucky night
I did a zeus/pos and it was cool
misty pollen
zeus pos is nice
zeus pos demeter is also nice if you manage to get the cast double boon
plucky night
Yeah thats what I did
Focus on pos most then zeus then demeter
Was good
I pretty much excluively use reroll to change god doors to different gods so I never have more than 3 types of boons
I dont know is this is good or not but its been letting me get really broken runs
zenith leaf
same except i also reroll basically every centaur heart
plucky night
I like centaur hearts
opal wing
its hard to not get hit with forced overtime 50% ;d
zenith leaf
lose all your runs like me
plucky night
I love and hate the new sword aspect
Because its so fun and I pick it everytime
And then I lose
echo orbit
I remember some of us were talking about Zagreus' "domain" or lackthereof earlier and something occurred to me that'd be interesting but kind of unlikely? What if Zagreus could call upon his own divinity?
zenith leaf
i summon the power to bleed a lot
plucky night
What if he can grow flowers like his mom
Thatd be cute
Since everything is so wintery and dead
echo orbit
That'd be neat
zenith leaf
i think achilles is 100% correct about zagreus's domain
thorn compass
Zagreus creates his first boon
misty pollen
zag boons
echo orbit
Or maybe something to do with blood?
misty pollen
what did achilles say ?
plucky night
Zag boons just gives you more death defiance
echo orbit
Achilles believes Zagreus is the god of blood
plucky night
God of life
echo orbit
Considering he has the ability to defy death, that does make sense
And Achilles also talks about how he and Than are inextricable from one another
zenith leaf
gay
plucky night
Very
thorn compass
could be
plucky night
It makes a lot of sense given Persphone is springtime and rebirth
echo orbit
Or just unlocking his own boons after defeating Hades under some set conditions
zenith leaf
imagine zagreus's domain has to do with blood but also deep personal connection
thorn compass
life and death
echo orbit
That kind of what it seems like actually
zenith leaf
blood and passion
echo orbit
To torture other sources: blood can refer to life, but it can also refer to connection and promises, as well as passion
plucky night
Now Im imagining being some other person trying to escape from hell and you get zag and its just "come back to life once" "get a dmg boost every time you die"
zenith leaf
legendary boon: annoy your dad
echo orbit
I guess in a way Zagreus is also doing that throughout the story itself with all of the connections he's making
plucky night
All Zags boons require you to take damage to have aby effect
misty pollen
kill death
echo orbit
*befriend death
zenith leaf
"""""befriend"""""
plucky night
Or you know death
calm geyser
So they'd be the vengeance boons.
misty pollen
zag the god of vengance ?
plucky night
Theres a meme triangle there
calm geyser
Nemesis would like to have words there.
zenith leaf
zagreus seems pretty much 0% vengeful
zenith leaf
has a hard time holding things against people, to a fault
plucky night
"Kill Death, Become Death, ""befriend"" death" with zagreus in the middle
misty pollen
Zag the god of dad issues
calm geyser
I mean vengeance in terms of all the "get hit, enemies suffer damage" xD but fair enough.
zenith leaf
zag's domain is twink
opal wing
https://puu.sh/F3O5d/d008aeca25.jpg okay chamber 4 and it's already going to be pretty funny
Thanks for the advice 😛
misty pollen
poseidon cast hits pretty hard
echo orbit
Zagreus - the god of sass
thorn compass
God of Edge
zenith leaf
than's got that covered
plucky night
The clock on the heart means theres no more story for now right?
zenith leaf
ye
plucky night
Cause I finished the achilles stuff and now Im sad and SGG better fix it
misty pollen
i want hades keepsake
zenith leaf
if we don't get to see achilles and patroclus + orpheus and eurydice reunite i will be so far beyond grumpy
echo orbit
^^
open crypt
Does anyone know how many times you have to mess with the harp before you get the fated list completion?
misty pollen
where can you find the harp btw ?
echo orbit
It's a contractor item
misty pollen
ah ic
open crypt
Don't know when it unlocked but I had Orpheus
misty pollen
any prerequestites ?
gentle current
it’s be unlock to buy after zag talk about playing instrument and orpheus mention zag’s beautiful hands
plucky night
Im not sure how long but Im finally on "ok" on the harp but not good enough and its been a while
open crypt
I got lessons, he mentioned it again after that, and I've been toying with it 10 times between runs
But no other completion update or further otherwise
Want those diamonds lmfao
zenith leaf
same, his playing has changed and i've stopped getting voice lines but still no new dialogue or quest completion
gentle current
so it’s possible we may get zagreus’s own song in future update perhaps ? darren sing in his tone-like song
plucky night
I did get an extra Orpheus "Ive heard you playing" dialogue too
No end in sight though
open crypt
I hope we get more music, all of the pieces are great
zenith leaf
mostly just wanna hear other people comment on his music playing
open crypt
love that he calls the hydra lernie after a while
echo orbit
I wonder if once we get to the surface Zag has to fight other legendary creatures? The Caledonian Boar, Scylla and Charybdis (though that’s more unlikely), maybe even the Olympians? I guess it might depend on who you max out or not
odd siren
@open crypt me too!!! it's my favorite thing
gentle current
i feel likely we’d get 3 or less more new dungeon (after hades fight), the game would get too long for a run unless there’s new battle design after hades, maybe boss rush match
echo orbit
Yeah the Hades boss fight can get pretty intense
echo orbit
Yeah that’d make sense
open crypt
I like how snappy the runs are but I feel sad when they end so quickly
trail plinth
46 runs and i still haven't beat hades 🤪
open crypt
The only weapon I can't consistently beat Hades with still is the shield
Spear aspect Guan Yu, first try, but not the chaos or regular shield
gentle current
shield of chaos is still nice for safe play run, it’s been carrying me to ~15 heat now
open crypt
I need to upgrade the chaos shield a bit
First rank kind of underwhelming
Love the bow aspects
Nuclear Hera bow is baller
trail plinth
tho today i got a really cute cutscene with athena and artemis so i am very satisfied
open crypt
@trail plinth The game has so much charm
trail plinth
soooo much, i don't get attached to a game like this in ages
gentle current
maxed shield of chaos -> dionysus - aphrodite - zeus’s special boon is perfect for this, not a big dmg per hit but really safe playstyle
open crypt
I got an insane bow run with incredible damage with Hera aspect. Dionysus fog, Demeter explosion on cast after a delay, increase cast damage from other boons
Almost half of Hades HP in one hit
gentle current
wonder how hera’s boon gonna work though, using cast to stack and attack seem to be a small hint. she’d be important rta element if her boon bring out big dmg like that bow 
stoic turtle
Just outa curiosity, are they including the rest of the olympians (Hera, Haphestus, Apollo) in the game?
stoic turtle
Actually, I think his stuff would mostly be fire based, with an additional hammer being his legendary
open crypt
I would love to see Apolo
gentle current
there’s still keepsake slots left for them, or any other gods/characters to appear in the game so it’s possible
open crypt
Fire could have a more specific effect to delineate from Doom
stoic turtle
It would also have to be different from hangover
stoic turtle
I think Apollo’s could be based on a percentage to stun an enemy
open crypt
It would be nice to see fire take a non damage over time route
stoic turtle
‘Cause the sun
gentle current
privilege stat may get some ad justment if they’re gonna dd more status in the game
open crypt
Stuns and positive enchantments to Zagreus would be nice from Apollo
thorn compass
stun maybe like blindness
gentle current
oh sunflash is nice idea XD
stoic turtle
But yeah, I definitely see Haphestus’ Legendary giving an extra hammer
Dionysus has festive fog for cast
thorn compass
oh yeah
odd siren
how is the bf going to say things like 'you are in so much trouble.' and then not follow up? than please
thorn compass
"Daddy won't be happy"
stoic turtle
Can you go the polygamous route in the game, or do you have to choose a specific love interest?
stoic turtle
👌
unkempt crown
For however much they try to censor from this game, they sure are ok with poly 
odd siren
until than decides he wants to talk about your dad instead of giving you The Scene! (i'm upset with him)
i don't think polyamorousness would be anything that... needed to be censored?
echo orbit
I agree
gentle current
we have tsundere bf and queen gf and now our cute maid
stoic turtle
Not gonna lie, I really like Duse
echo orbit
She’s a cutie yeah
gentle current
this is the harem i dream of
odd siren
she's the cutest. it's real.
stoic turtle
She’s a really sweet talking gorgon head
odd siren
she makes all the other gorgon heads look bad tbh
stoic turtle
I wonder what she’d be like with a body
echo orbit
More like they make her look bad and make it harder for her to get a job
thorn compass
short and a bit chubby
echo orbit
Awww that’d be cute
odd siren
@thorn compass look i was thinking the exact same thing
that's scary and also fantastic
stoic turtle
Actually, do gorgons have legs or a snake tail thing?
thorn compass
oh wow
gentle current
hope march update will include nyx avatar and add her interaction with dusa, wanna see their conversation bit more
stoic turtle
More specifically, in this game
odd siren
i've only seen the heads
as dusa, the miniboss in asphodel, and the little ones that spawn in regular encounters
stoic turtle
This is a question I want answered.
echo orbit
Sometimes they get syncretized with Naga which have the snake lower bodies
odd siren
which may stem from the fact that Regular Myth medusa was beheaded? and Maid Dusa is a play on words meant to be Medusa
echo orbit
But usually gorgons have normal humanoid bodies when depicted
open crypt
New boss in Asphodel, a full gorgon
stoic turtle
^
odd siren
secretly the hydra has been her hair this whole time
stoic turtle
^^^^
open crypt
Yeah like literally could just be a varient
You enter and it starts as the Hydra and then she comes out of the lava and her tendrils are the bone heads
odd siren
yes! and you have to dodge for cover sometimes to avoid being turned to stone
open crypt
New moves kinda like Fury sisters
stoic turtle
It’s be cool if there was a work order allowing Dusa to get her body back
stoic turtle
Agreed
glad lion
I'm loving all the new dusa/meg interactions they are really fleshing them both out a lot
open crypt
Dusa is pretty great too
odd siren
^^^
open crypt
The whole cast is pretty great tbh
odd siren
apparently it's not uncommon to depict gorgons with wings and tusks
and sometimes dragonlike scales on their bodies
stoic turtle
Honestly, devs did an amazing job on this game regarding story and characters
open crypt
@glad lion Girls night out lmfao
odd siren
isn't that the truth! @stoic turtle
open crypt
It's one of the reasons that the game is so enjoyable for me. The charm and the sass and the cohesion of story + character growth
When Zagreus sasses Hades during his speeches up top, it killed me
glad lion
I would love to see some more nyx love and some mother bonding with any of her kids tbh
stoic turtle
I think I also like some of the liberties it takes with mythology
glad lion
The sass in this game is so good
odd siren
it would have been so easy for them to say 'oh, this is hades but just like, a surface reading' but every new detail i get about any character -- if you sit down and read the related mythos, you can see why they make the choices they do
and that's just delightful
stoic turtle
@glad lion yes
odd siren
nyx holds family dinner in the lounge
stoic turtle
^^^^
glad lion
The one time we get to see the other fury sisters in the house 👀
odd siren
alecto and zagreus have to sit at the opposite ends of the table from one another or someone will Die
open crypt
I want to see more Hades growth
glad lion
If only Chaos could join too and we could get closure on the Nyx/Chaos storyline
thorn compass
is it make or doe Hades remind be of old man Kratos?
odd siren
i really hope that's something we get when she gets a model @glad lion
stoic turtle
Boy
odd siren
if not before then
thorn compass
Dangerous Boy
glad lion
I hope so too! Now that Dusa got some love its Nyx turn
thorn compass
I'd imagine Nyx's design is like a middle ground between Olympians and Chaos
odd siren
i love the several-eyed version from Lore Olympus, though i doubt that's the route they'll go here
glad lion
I really want her to have like a starry veil
thorn compass
that'd be nice
vast garnet
have someone else such problem? "in the game mouse speed in one moment slow in a second moment fast and slow-fast, slow-fast and etc....." ?
open crypt
Only use controller so not here
odd siren
i haven't run into it, @vast garnet
open crypt
I've seen some glitches but not like that
odd siren
be sure to report it with f10!
glad lion
Cause I really like her current hooded design, for her and charon, the placeholders always fit them the best, so I hope they can channel that into the final art
vast garnet
ok, thx for f10, didnt know
odd siren
it was only until very recently that i realized nyx's art /was/ a placeholder
no worries! good luck fixing it!
stoic turtle
Is Charon's also a placeholder?
glad lion
A lot of characters used to share it, it's a lot less obvious now
I think so? But again it fits really well lol
So I hope for both of them they keep some kind of hood in the final art
odd siren
i agree with that.
thorn compass
it's likely
glad lion
With charon especially keeping the face obscured but with more detailed outfit and such, he is one of the riches people in Hades it seems lol
stoic turtle
Which do you guys think is the best game Supergiant released?
thorn compass
I just see him as a zombie lol
odd siren
this one is really up there for me. though transistor makes me cry every single time i play it
different moods i guess haha
glad lion
^
stoic turtle
it would be a very close tie between Bastion and Hades for me atm
thorn compass
poor pyre
stoic turtle
I love Pyre, I love what it did
gentle current
i’m novel reader so pyre is really clicked well for me too, 15hrs first run and I think 10hrs were used in reading lmao
thorn compass
yeah it did feel like that
gentle current
and hades put that element well as dialogue-wise too, so it’s@nice they find a balance of action and storytelling in this game
stoic turtle
Though Transistor doesn't get much love
gentle current
pyre is heavy on text-based but get visualized well, bad pr i guess, should have show more directly about being novel game with sport game as bonus aespect
native marlin
it...doesn't? I assumed Transistor was like the most popular SGG game
stoic turtle
I guess I don't hear much about it when compared to the rest
glad lion
Last I looked it the most roles for fav
gentle current
it’s really a long while ago game, the hype is gone but fanbase is grown so
glad lion
Baston and transistor I think are just at the point where everyone has said what they wanna say, likebhe said the hype has died down
Also we should probably more this to the SGG channel if we wanna keep going lol
stoic turtle
true
my b
question just popped into my head
this is one of the more active chats
glad lion
Hades has definitely hit a larger audience it seems and is pretty popular so I can see why lol
stoic turtle
So... anyone wanna gush more about Dusa?
glad lion
I wish she didn't hide in the corner hall past your room all the time,,,, it's so hard to see her there
stoic turtle
too true
open crypt
I hope she stays unharmed
tiny sequoia
echo orbit
Wasn't Perseus the one that decapitated her?
coarse stone
He was and it made a winged horse. Poor Dusa :x
(although maybe that's how she can float up to the rafters come to think of it)
thorn compass
thanks Pers
stoic turtle
Hold up. We have 3 romantic interests and 1 keepsake slot left.
open crypt
Romance Hades
stoic turtle
OH GODS NO
open crypt
Lmfao
coarse stone
I'd rather romance the mirror tbh
thorn compass
Thanatos
Skelly
Sisythus
Megera?
Patro?
Muse?
???
thorn compass
ah yeah him lol
stoic turtle
He’s taken
thorn compass
kinda..
coarse stone
I think Achilles/Patroclus could be an option depending on how the story goes for them
open crypt
I really, really love the Hades final theme
stoic turtle
Maybe Hypnos?
open crypt
I wish the final form lasted longer so I could bop out to that theme
Hypnos would be cute
coarse stone
and if Zag's in a relationship with Meg, she suggests using a whip to keep Hypnos awake
stoic turtle
Damn mobile
coarse stone
and always a possiblity
Not sure if the devs are going to add any more gods as just characters (and not boons)
stoic turtle
Any more cathonic gods we haven’t heard about?
thorn compass
what if Hypnos sleeping is just his own power backfiring
stoic turtle
Possible
coarse stone
and Nyx has far too many children to be possibilities lol
Nyx is literally like the Brady Bunch of the gods tbh, has more children than most normal people
stoic turtle
Maybe Heracles becomes an NPC
coarse stone
I think he's in Olympus though
stoic turtle
True
open crypt
Would love to see Heracles
coarse stone
and last time he broke in or out of the underworld, Hades had it out for him
stoic turtle
Heh, what if he’s skelly’s boss
coarse stone
He's literally one of the two "Do NOT ever mention him to me, ever."
thorn compass
skelly was the true mastermind
coarse stone
Skelly is Persephone's way of talking to Zag
stoic turtle
Hm
coarse stone
and give him weapons
thorn compass
imo I think it's then narrators avatar so to speak despite Zag hearing him clearly
coarse stone
but the fact that Hades doesn't just banish Skelly from his house is fairly telling
That Skelly's payroll isn't any of the Olympians
Hades would have him out of there faster than you can say "Oh, Zeus again."
stoic turtle
Alright, I’ve asked a number of questions so far, but now I’ve got a heavy hitter.
Brace yourselves
Where’s the nsfw stuff?
coarse stone
Hidden by a fade to black
because Meg is more woman than the players (or Zag) can handle 😛
but in all seriousness though, the devs are keeping away from nsfw stuff
stoic turtle
I’m not talking on this server
thorn compass
closest thing is Aphrodite
coarse stone
Yeah, Aphrodite is the closest thing to nsfw that the devs would get methinks
Mainly because of who/what she represents
stoic turtle
I’m talking more about where to find this stuff. It’s very hard to search when the title is literally the name of a Greek god
coarse stone
(that and it's her classical portrayal really, she's allergic to clothes it seems)
Oh, well I haven't seen much tbh
fanfics though I have
cold canopy
Any further discussion into that matter should be kept in DM's, please. 
stoic turtle
Alrighty, I’ll end it here
craggy shadow
idk if i'd ever do romancing but i'm tickled it's an option for those that would
stoic turtle
I wonder what the next weapon could be like. Maybe a flamethrower?
thorn compass
heh
coarse stone
Dusa on a rope and stick
craggy shadow
Ooh, flamethrower would be fun
I feel like since we have 3 melee already, it'll be another range
stoic turtle
Same thought process
dense crown
would fit with the currrent scheme of melee on the left and range on the right
coarse stone
Could always use Dusa as a way to cast magic
Could be funny seeing everyone's reactions to Dusa helping Zag in his escape
Especially Meg.
stoic turtle
They could also do magic garments that have ranged spells
Like a gauntlet of some sort
craggy shadow
Zagreus....Ezreal...
stoic turtle
He is real
coarse stone
Or maybe a magical orb
Would have a lot of potential aspects
considering the amount of seers or sorcerors in myths
Would also count as a ranged weapon as well
open crypt
Explosive spear upgrade + spear special increased damage + faster special speed through Hermes
- Doom on special from Ares
I'm an armor piercing machinegun
calm geyser
I know it would never happen, especially since all the weapons are of the original Olympians and all...but now I'm imagining Zag stumbling across a weapon Persephone owned and hid away.
thorn compass
hmm
open crypt
Now + breaching skewer so 400% damage to armor
craggy shadow
the explosive spear is NUTS i love it
open crypt
Getting to the end game that's in progress, meeting Persephone, unlocks fourth aspect of a weapon
Aspect of Persephone
That would be neat
open crypt
Orpheus' song VA did an incredible job
merry sorrel
ok but upgradable fishing pole with Demeter/hestia/Persephone aspect when
stark tulip
fishing pole is actually the 6th weapon
thorn compass
Beach Boy
haughty carbon
shoot, I missed an opportunity to say that when I got the idea for that oh well. Fishing pole will definetly be the big boy around.
echo orbit
Darren Korb is a fantastic composer and vocalist
dense blaze
According to the wiki there was supposed to be a scene in your room with Meg et al, where you got the choice to puprsue relations with them, instead I got a scene in the lounge and the Bonds Forged message
haughty carbon
that's for everyone if you maxed their hearts, the bedroom scene comes along randomly later after that.
dense blaze
I maxed Than and Meg but got neither yet
thorn compass
ambrosia?
thorn compass
hmm
dense blaze
All hearts in codex filled
haughty carbon
yeah it's random
edgy brook
Sweet hades I've been exposed to the truth
Rail is so fun with the shotgun 1 shot reload mod
Also has tons of synergy with attack up stuff.
But heat doesn't make the enemies stronger right? So like..you can "cheat" and just add the silly ones and get rewards still?
open crypt
Up until higher heat requirements when you might have to start adding the harder ones
edgy brook
Pretty forgiving.
open crypt
Only one I'm trying to avoid save for getting the fate list completion is the one that refunds your darkness
Because I find it tedious to have to put all of the darkness back into stuff after the run
edgy brook
Oh that's how that one works? I didn't understand it so didn't pick it
open crypt
It caps the upgrades you can have from darkness starting at 2000 I believe?
So if you have darkness put in over that amount it just boots it back into your cache
edgy brook
Oh wtf, did heroic always exist or was that added with heat?
Did the eurydice event and 2 of mine are red now. Never saw that.
ancient maple
is something supposed to happen when Achilles tells you to go to your room?
he keeps doing it randomly, but nothing ever happens
open crypt
Papachilles
ancient maple
oh daddy
echo mist
It might be a precursor to unlocking the other weapon aspects who knows
open crypt
I wish there was more to do with keys and darkness
Cause now I have nothing I can do with them except trade on certain rare shoptions
ancient maple
keys can be turned into fruit, which will be more useful once more relationships unlock
but yeah darkness is kinda useless
chiron bow with demeter special + explosion on enemies with 10 stacks = super good
open crypt
That's the special seeker one right and then special chills enemies?
I had a special crit + special damage up + chaos special upgrade chiron run after fully upgrading it and it is bonkers good
edgy brook
Does the heat special door remove chaos doors? Or am I just seriously unlucky..
open crypt
Oops! All Splitters!
@edgy brook Are you talking about the infernal gates?
They do not remove chaos gates
edgy brook
The red ones that require heat
Okay just unlucky then. I thought egg gave a higher chance but re-read it and its just a buff -if- you get chaos. whoops
misty pollen
Quick question what is the song orpheus first sings ? I like the solemn feel of it and i’m wondering if it’s in the sheet music list
misty pollen
Okay thanks. I wished it was in the chamber music list tho. I was looking out for it. But realized it wasn’t there.
misty pollen
Ahh i see ok i’ll try furthering their story. I see a ??? On the list.
nova steppe
i bought it before the update that allowed display of full list to choose from, it cost 10 diamonds
that's the one
misty pollen
Anyways thx for the info
opal wing
!!!! the fish I caught in chaos gave me a titanblood
nova steppe
yeah the chaos fishing is super rare and give best rewards
opal wing
I take it the others give ambrosia or diamonds?
nova steppe
yeah
hearty jay
Which are the characters that give companions currently?
woeful quartz
I have the Dusa bounty and bought all the lounge upgrades, but I'm not seeing any options for ambrosia yet. Did I do something wrong, or--
misty pollen
ambrosia is used for legendary keepsakes
and for unlocking said keepsakes from speciffic characters
tidal schooner
I got the most insane build earlier
woeful quartz
I already maxed her out
tidal schooner
Demeter +_ Poseidon Duo with Hera bow
misty pollen
iirc it's thanatos, meg, dusa, and sisy
tidal schooner
And skelly
flint marten
junior field
she also has a line that tells you to keep going
must be one of the newly added ones
errant mango
I got a "Don't... like... you" recently. I thought we were friends Meg

I am impressed how much new dialogues with Aphrodite has been added in recent update. In 5 or so runs there was no repeating lines from Aphro. Wow

dusty notch
Can somebody tell me what do I have to do to complete Dusa's quest?
junior field
buy lounge improvements
and a bed for Cerberus, I think
start with the cheapest ones
you definitely need to buy the lounge floor renovation
dusty notch
I bought all of the lounge upgrades and the quest is not complete
junior field
just keep talking to her then
I also had everything and it wasn't completing
so I just kept talking and she eventually mentioned the lounge being all fixed, which caused the prophecy to complete
and the relationship to move forward
dusty notch
I hope this will work
junior field
I actually can't find her new lines in the subtitle files
her ambrosia lines are there but not the new dialogues
quasi swan
I just uhhh... had the room scene with Thanatos. And then I had a run where I talked to Hermes and Ares, and both commented on it
plucky night
Ares is so funny
quasi swan
I just love the depth to which Supergiant is making these dialogues and story items
I legit did not expect anyone to comment, let alone TWO gods
plucky night
Has Ares ever met Thanatos?
quasi swan
He said this to me:
Aww I can't add pictures
But he said, "Excellent choice of mate, my kin"
Or something along those lines
plucky night
Because how he describes him is hilarious
quasi swan
"It is my understanding that you have grown rather close to Thanatos, my kin? A perfect choice of mate, though I confess I'd not expected Death to have an affection for another save himself." is what Ares said
plucky night
"I didn't think Thanatos would ever care about anyone but himself" uh ares have you ever spoken to thanatos
quasi swan
Because Thanatos definitely doesn't seem that way to me
lunar kiln
hello everyone. has anybody here seen my daughter
quasi swan
Sorry grandma, we're still looking for her T_T
lunar kiln
frostbite for you

miserable mortal
plucky night
What does Hermes say though? I accidentally skipped through it

you cannot replace my daughter with nectar

Hermes said to me... lemme transcribe it from my screenshot

hermbody once told me the world was gonna roll me
quasi swan
"Saw Thanatos again lately, here, boss, and want to tell you, almost looked as though he cracked a smile when he mentioned you, never seen anything like that with him!"
runic terrace
zag: he mentioned me....
zenith leaf
that's the cutest thing
quasi swan
Isn't it? I love it so much
So many kudos to the dev team for coming up with all this fantastic dialogue
compact verge
Hey, I just thought of something. Since the Aspect of Guan Yu is a thing, it means he probably used it. Guan Yu died in 220AD, about 300 years after Greece was conquered by Rome. If that's the case, then Zag might be leaving the underworld and entering a very different world than the Ancient Greece he's expecting. Either that, or timey wimey stuff is happening. Either or.
zenith leaf
I think achilles talks about it as being a vision from the future
zenith leaf
Oh and the description for it talks about it in the future tense
compact verge
Ah, gotcha
burnt harbor
Or in this universe the fact that Greek gods unambiguously exist means they showed some 'Hellenic appreciation' to the would-be conquerors
brazen silo
Oh no...
steel ravine
Oh yes
steady beacon
I'd say he's almost more of a kuudere, honestly.
It's like tsundere but replace 'angry' with 'serious and quiet'
burnt harbor
Also a Tsundere GOD OF DEATH sounds like an horrible prospect for Zag
steel ravine
Anyway re: timeline and "not the Ancient Greece one's expecting" I'm more worried about where Apollo's at, for one. From the tidbits of info about the surface world it kinda feels like things have gone to crap supernaturally too, not just war stuff.
burnt harbor
Am I the only one who finds hilarious that Death Incarnate gifts you life buffs?
steady beacon
Unrelated: i'm love how it's canon that Zeus makes 'i banged ur mom' jokes, but mortals take them to be true
steel ravine
I mean they probably are
steady beacon
Demeter says otherwise in one of her comments, though
coarse stone
Everyone's Tsundere for Zag
Both Meg and Than complain about Zag's penchant for rampaging escape attempts but are more than willing to grumble and then flirt
burnt harbor
I mean Meg is more grumpy about the constant defeats and the fact she has to either to kill him or die to him
coarse stone
but wouldn't she find that fun?
steel ravine
What's fun about having your reputation trampled
burnt harbor
We talking about Meg, not Alecto
steel ravine
She's a professional
coarse stone
She likes the slapslap kiss relationship with Zag
steel ravine
She repedeately fails at her task
burnt harbor
Also, they are grumpy because he is chasing the mother that 'abandoned' him instead of staying with the one who nurtured him
steel ravine
Yeah but they don't take it as professionally plus we don't get to hear their thoughts nearly as much
coarse stone
We already know what Tisiphone thinks though
steel ravine
Also yeah I can't get behind Zag's thinking in this one either
coarse stone
"Murdeeeeeereeeeeeeer"
and I think it's more of what adopted kids tend to go through
steady beacon
coarse stone
they want to find out where they came from
steel ravine
Thanks Kade
steady beacon
just related to Zeus making 'i banged ur mom' jokes
burnt harbor
Like yeah, Hades is an ass.
But Nyx has been the perfect mother his whole life. They see him as selfish for doing this to her
coarse stone
Except Nyx also supports his escape attempts =x
sharp axle
I think Demeter and Poseidon have the best quotes
steel ravine
Well I mean Nyx can be supportive while being torn about it on the inside
coarse stone
Ultimately what they see is what they're projecting onto Zag and Nyx's relationship though ;x
steady beacon
Demeter has some really really good quotes, ngl
coarse stone
and she's not really torn considering she literally says "I'm supporting him, dealwithit lol" to Hades
sharp axle
Poseidon has some "awkward uncle" quotes
steel ravine
I love Demeter both quote-wise and mechanically
burnt harbor
Poseidon REALLY wants to be the cool uncle
coarse stone
Poseidon wants to be the cool uncle
steel ravine
Still waiting for Hephaestus tho
burnt harbor
He technically is by elimination
sharp axle
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/527330532259004419/671053762458025994/unknown.png Amazingly awkward lol
coarse stone
but he doesn't realize that he's the uncle with dad jokes
steady beacon
I think what mantra was saying was that they don't realize that Nyx is entirely chill with Zag trying to leave
coarse stone
I think they're just upset that Zag's wanting to leave them
Thanatos for certain is
burnt harbor
All his nieces and nephews see him as a bit of an embarrasment tho
I think actually gets along pretty well with his cousins all said
steady beacon
I love artemis is like 'oh dad tells me to take Uncle Poseidon seriously, but it honestly really hard to'
sharp axle
Uncle Poseidon also has a super awkward "liquid justice quote," that is also amazingly awkward
coarse stone
Artemis is also "Please save me from these idiots, Zag. :("
coarse stone
Yeah, liquid justice just sounds wrong
errant mango

Artemis is great

YES!

HE REALLY SAID THAT LOL
burnt harbor
Poseidon: PLS, dont ask about Asterius, not my proudest moment
sharp axle
favorite quote ever
errant mango
It's really something isn't it
coarse stone
Poseidon seriously scares me with the dad jokes lol
steady beacon
I love the interaction between Demeter and Poseidon that sometimes shows up when their duo boon appears
burnt harbor
Yesterday I just saw Aphrodite c*******block Artemis
Just when she was gonna confess to him lol
coarse stone
Doesn't that happen a lot with Aphrodite?
I'm surprised that ARtemis doesn't lose her temper and remind Aphrodite that arrows in the heart tend to be fatal 😛
burnt harbor
The dual conversations are the funniest, shame rarely happen
coarse stone
I think the only one I've seen was the Zeus/Poseidon one
stark tulip
Dio and Zeus one is good too lol
coarse stone
where Poseidon backtracks faster than an arachnophobic confronted by a wolf spider
coarse stone
Yeah
errant mango
Ah yeah that's a good one
burnt harbor
Btw dunno why but Alecto seems much harder boss for me than the other two
steady beacon
"Hello little Zagreus I was just reminding this oaf here that I could freeze his entire domain solid if I felt like it." "Yep, indeed you could! :D" (And just Poseidon. not even realizing it's supposed to be a threat)
coarse stone
I kinda like Demeter but she's just eerily menacing
steady beacon
That's why I like Demeter
coarse stone
and actually, she technically would have a hard time freezing the ocean
stark tulip
grandmas feeling stabby
steady beacon
she brings that Big Boss energy
lapis smelt
If she did then everything else would be completely and utterly dead
burnt harbor
The salt is from Poseidon tears
lament flame
I like how Aphro and Dio reaction on Poseidon is like "hahaha that's my uncle he kinda stupid"
coarse stone
Isn't that Dio's reaction to everything?
steady beacon
She probably could, actually? She would just have to make it very very very cold.
coarse stone
He's drunk ;x
burnt harbor
Lets be honest Poseidon is a tryhard lol
coarse stone
and it's not the temperature that would need to be changed due to the fact that ocean waves tend to destabilize any ice formation
burnt harbor
BTW
coarse stone
basically Poseidon could just throw a temper tantrum and block Demeter from freezing the ocean
(I want to see that tbh)
burnt harbor
I was surprised how readily was Zag to go along with Dio's joke
lament flame
OK I found my favorite quote of his https://imgur.com/a/nAKMPdm
steady beacon
He's so dumb, it's wonderful
coarse stone
Poseidon, stop D:
lament flame
IT IS LIKE THAT RUSSIAN MEME LOL
burnt harbor
Quotes like that show why He has no offspring and Zeus has 6
coarse stone
In Soviet Russia, wit exceeds Poseidon?
steady beacon
If he's even being honest about them all being his kids :V

supple dagger
...I forgot what I came in here for...
coarse stone
I think Zeus tends to exaggerate how great he is
coarse stone
I think Demeter is the least likely to sugarcoat her words or deeds
She's literally one of the only gods with boons that are blatant about her intentions
steady beacon
^
coarse stone
She's not doing it just to make Zag happy
burnt harbor
Zeus is both the oldest and the youngest brother, and has the worst of both traits
coarse stone
she's doing it because if you defy her
lament flame
Haha yes
coarse stone
she'll put everyone in an endless winter
and make you suffer for all eternity
and BOW to her.
Then sing "Let It Go" to rub it in.
coarse stone
I'd like to see Nyx fight Demeter tbh
lament flame
Man eternal winter is sure sucks but Demeter is so 👌 👌 👌
steady beacon
cue 'who should you get into a fight with' meme here
coarse stone
I'd probably get into a fight with Thanatos
steady beacon
why
lament flame
why
coarse stone
Seems fun to tease shrug
steady beacon
But he could instakill you after a small countdown
lament flame
That's fine if you always want to die
coarse stone
If I die in war, he doesn't get my soul
If I die in pain, he doesn't get my soul
so I'd have to really die of old age or in my sleep
steady beacon
So he instakills you peacefully
steady beacon
I mean. an instakill means you feel no pain, because it;s instant.
coarse stone
well that really depends on if Than's instakills are really instant
covert totem
Doom counter bosses are fun, right? 
coarse stone
because if he's basically dooming me to die, then would it be truly peaceful if I'm in despair?
steady beacon
People who die of old age still have to deal with the despair of coming to terms with it, you egg
coarse stone
Yes but they have years to get over being old 😛
steady beacon
But not all of them might be able to
coarse stone
I mean I've already started telling my mom that she's old
Plus Than's sphere of influence is weird
I don't think he actually does the killing itself but rather fetches the people who die
steady beacon
and it's not just being old. it's that you will die soon. There's kind of a difference.
coarse stone
Plus by nature, being in a fight wouldn't be a peaceful death methinks
although the spheres of power between Than and the Kers is messy
Still would get into a fight with Than, he seems less likely to hold a grudge.
quasi swan
I'm trying to get so many duo boons and can't wait to hear how Demeter interacts with the others
I love them all so much ;^;
supple dagger
I think I popped in for something related to patch notes, but I forgot...
quasi swan
Damp Uncle, Zappy Uncle, Murder Cousin, Shield Cousin, Stabby Cousin, Speedy Cousin... I don't remember if Aphrodite is related to you or not
coarse stone
I think Zeus would be mocked
coarse stone
I think Aphrodite is like...the adopted older sister who has a penchant for having no modesty
and flirting, with everyone.
coarse stone
Imagine having a friend over. Then bam, Aphrodite.
supple dagger
Aphro not being related helps normalize the constant flirting and threats
quasi swan
I wonder if Aphrodite says anything about me and Than being boyfriends
coarse stone
Yes
coarse stone
She has hearts too
errant mango
Why would Poseidon say anything? I don't think he cares
coarse stone
Basically she kinda fangirls about it
quasi swan
Cuz he's Cool Damp Uncle and he's funny and I like him
coarse stone
although I'm not sure if she's fangirling because Zag found love
or just because he found love with Than
lament flame
Both
supple dagger
I can see Aphro being one of those
quasi swan
I like to think she's happy that they both found love, and is extra happy that it's with each other
coarse stone
well yeah, you'd think she'd be more blase about the whole thing. Not fangirling over Than and Zag sitting in a tree, etc.
errant mango
I mean she likes playing the matchmaker, not just doing things for herself
coarse stone
but yeah, she does talk about Than and Zag's relationship lol
with floating hearts too
lament flame
Now I wonder does she say something about Meg and Zag too ?
coarse stone
I think she does
errant mango
Yeah. All 3 I believe
coarse stone
I remember hearing people comment on that she does
lament flame
Cool!
formal ivy
all... 3?
errant mango
Apparently she also says something about the Dusa situation
formal ivy
dusa romance!!!!
formal ivy
coarse stone
Dusa friendzones Zag so hard that Aphrodite feels it in Olympus
errant mango
I'm probably the only person here who doesn't like it, but a lot of people seem to be all over the gorgon head, so why not
calm geyser
Dusa is ace, I can respect that. And am also glad because it means I won't have to break her heart rejecting her because uh...no. You're adorable and all but no.
coarse stone
I think her portrayal of crushing on Zag is what might be the trickiest thing
supple dagger
I kinda agree. I can't see it minus just Zag being rebellious and going against house rules.
formal ivy
I'm gone for half a week for cny and now this happens
errant mango
Same with Artemis actually. But that's a hot take for another day
coarse stone
it'd make sense if she had a crush but realized that they were better off as friends
and that was actually better displayed
calm geyser
Artemis is a good friend. She and Zag would totally go on hunts together.
errant mango
Yeah but people really want her to be a romance option
Which i disagree with personally
coarse stone
I think it makes sense that she isn't
errant mango
Wouldn't fit her character imo
coarse stone
I mean not everyone wants Zag
formal ivy
let me attempt to romance everybody
errant mango
I'd like if you could try her but she just turns you down
lament flame
I think even if Dusa friendzones Zag it's a good lesson for him and us. Sometimes our feeling aren't mutual
coarse stone
Just ask Zag, he's used to failed attempts
stark tulip
it sets a weird precedent anyway with other olympians
covert totem
Might be several of Zag's 'deaths', failed attempts to romance olympians 
coarse stone
Pretty sure none of the Olympians would be romancable due to them being related
formal ivy
attempts to romance zeus
zeus is... thunderstruck by the revelation
coarse stone
and SGG is avoiding THOSE implications
burnt harbor
Does Zag asks Aphro about signing the poster?
coarse stone
Don't think he does
Plus I'd be worried about HOW she'd sign it
probably with a lot of kissy marks
formal ivy
a lock of her hair?
coarse stone
and a passive aggressive "I love you and you love me. Or else."
formal ivy
since its long enough to go to china and back several times
coarse stone
"Your favorite Olympian, Aphrodite."
Probably best that Zag keeps Aphrodite away from that poster
lol
I mean, she'd probably go nuts over a MIRROR. Imagine a reproducable image of herself.
lament flame
Tho she comments on Zag equipping eternal rose
coarse stone
Everyone in the mortal realm and Olympus would have it
and yeah, I think all gods comment on their own artifact
covert totem
Would be pretty funny if she finds out about the wall scroll
burnt harbor
I love Zag answer to the narrator to his quip over the poster
'Ey, It's my room I can put Whatever I want'
coarse stone
So he can put Than in it>?
formal ivy
put it in than
lament flame
coarse stone
I want to have Than be a permenant fixture in Zag's room
lament flame
Agree
calm geyser
I'm just imagining Zag asking Aphrodite to sign the poster in a dual room with Ares. Who's just sharpening his sword.
covert totem
I am wondering if we're getting more wall scrolls, since they're cannon in amcient greece now
errant mango
coarse stone
Then he'd probably sign the Stygius
pearl plank
Is anyone else confused by the emphasis of the phrase "Fear is for the weak?" It seems like a rather poor sentiment
coarse stone
It's a madness mantra
lament flame
Yes
calm geyser
I don't think Zag would have much choice on the matter. XD
"Uses Ares call while fighting Ares". "Did not think this through".
runic terrace
i dont know what they payoff will be but for now i think its like...bad on purpose
formal ivy
"Fear is for the weak"?
coarse stone
I think Achilles is actually fearing something
runic terrace
achilles isnt perfect, hes just doing his best to support zag....
coarse stone
which is kinda alarming tbh
pearl plank
I hope so, I feel like Zag would already be the type of guy to not ascribe to that
coarse stone
Since I know he kinda repeats it after mentioning Patroclus
pearl plank
Yeah
runic terrace
fear is for the weak falls into the same category as "oh dont worry abt killing satyrs and rats, its fine to kill living things!", which is like....bandaid solutions to get zag out NOW
calm geyser
As much as I want the best for Achilles and Patroclus...I have some concerns.
errant mango
It's probably going to be really bittersweet or something
coarse stone
I think he might be afraid that he made a mistake
formal ivy
^
pearl plank
Well they also don't seem to have the same negative view of death as mortals do
coarse stone
and he can't exactly go back and change it
calm geyser
True.
coarse stone
so he tells himself that fear is for the weak
so he doesn't succumb to his OWN fears
lament flame
I think big irony is Achilles is fear that Patroclus didn't forgive him
coarse stone
Because he's not weak, he's NOT.
formal ivy
(which is true, just not for the reasons he thinks)
coarse stone
I think he should just ask Hades if he can have Patroclus back
I mean both of them are warriors, Hades would have even better security
and depending on the contract and deal that Achilles made, it's possible that the terms have been achieved
errant mango
He did let us help Sisyphus in a way
runic terrace
can u imagine how mad he must be at theseus
like "why didnt I think of that"
errant mango
I'd imagine it'll be something similar
formal ivy
How did we buy out the Sisyphus and Orpheus ones?
coarse stone
I think Hades would be reasonable
especially since Zag can keep beating him in combat
formal ivy
As I recall it was something like "I don't even really remember why it matters, go ahead"
coarse stone
which means that Achilles did his job VERY well
and I think Hades doesn't ever forget
Just look at how he reacts to Herc.
errant mango
"I thought Achilles taught you to be quick"
mystic tusk
so, it was my understanding that theseus will only summon a god you don't have boons from, but I now realize that I have no evidence that is the case
lament flame
Yes
coarse stone
"Well it's not my fault you put Cerberus in the door, Father."
mystic tusk
can that happen and if so is zag similarly deadpan?
errant mango
Only if you have boons from all the gods, it'll be random
coarse stone
and yeah, it'd make sense that Theseus calls upon an Olympian that you don't get a boon for
since they do feel slighted and want you dead
formal ivy
is it possible to get one of everybody?
coarse stone
I think it's possible but takes a LOT of luck
errant mango
I've heard so, by using the keepsakes
mystic tusk
olympia is pretty crowded these days
errant mango
And rerolls
calm geyser
Keepsakes and a lot of rerolls.
formal ivy
it doesn't sound impossible, but then neither does the possibility that there's some built-in restriction that alters boons if you have only 1 god left
mystic tusk
I actually am fairly sure there is something that weights towards gods you already have, in order to increase the likeliness of legendary boons
coarse stone
It'd be kinda funny if there weren't any Olympians that you had to get, Theseus would just summon extra shades of himself
cloud dagger
I just want Achilles to be happy
coarse stone
but yeah, I've noticed that my runs tend to limit themselves to 2 Olympians + Hermes
mystic tusk
hermes is treated like a hammer, for all intents and purposes
formal ivy
I usually get 3, but yeah
coarse stone
but the mantra "Fear is for the weak" is kinda omninous but it could also just be Achilles just trying to not succumb to it
mystic tusk
I MEAN YOU WOULD THINK THAT WOULD BE HEPHAESTUS AMIRITE
supple dagger
Okay, I think I remembered what I wanted to ask: what is "Punishing Damage" for the Hades aspect? And was does the cursor icon indicate?
mystic tusk
whoops, I think a message double posted, sorry about that
errant mango
I think it just means you're doing extra damage. It's a mark, kind of
mystic tusk
if you hover over the aspect, it'll give you a detailed explanation
but enemies with the target take extra damage from all sources
pearl plank
If anything fear is for the courageous
mystic tusk
you can't see it in the boon screen during the run, which I feel is a flaw
pearl plank
Can't have courage without fear
formal ivy
As a soldier I should think Achilles has experienced enough to say "fear is for everybody, but giving up is for the weak"
pearl plank
That sounds better
supple dagger
Now, for a more lore/idea thing: Ceres and Calypso from the Odyssey; what are they up to?

burnt harbor
Because he just has the heart for Patroclus

@formal ivy Circe turned Odysseus' men into pigs
supple dagger

maybe she'll become the Chef shade in a future update 
cloud dagger
^ neat
mystic tusk
lament flame
Yeah good concept
formal ivy
I like that the house contractor is a blank shade because of Zag running away from his work, but the chef and trader seem like they can be replaced with proper characters
cloud dagger
Did the greeks have a god of trade?
supple dagger
they cooould
cloud dagger
High god of financial stability
supple dagger
Did they? The way Hermes is, he could be the god of that as well
mystic tusk
if in doubt, apollo is the god of it, is the rule of thumb
cloud dagger
Huh...yeah you're right, apparently Hermes is the go-to
supple dagger
if memory serves me right, is Selene the moon goddess in Greek mythos?
formal ivy
Artemis and Hecate had those roles too
errant mango
"Selene was often identified with Artemis, much as her brother, Helios, was identified with Apollo."
Seems like she's more "personification of the moon" than a moon goddess
supple dagger
Idk why this question and that answer reminded me that the community (at least on the subreddit from one thread, or maybe it's in here) already want a spiritual spin-off from SG based on Egyptian mythos... I'd support it.
oohh
Because I knew Nyx wasn't Selene.
mystic tusk
I suppose this isn't strictly on topic but I honestly wonder what the average greek layman would this about the fact that their mythological fanfiction became archival important doctrine
pearl plank
If SG makes a spiritual spinoff I hope it has co-op lol

not sure to put this, but I'm putting it in spoilers just to be safe. Upon seeing Demeter's boon for the first time, Zagreus says this line: "Last time I felt a chill like this was... on the surface, but who...? Well, one way to find out, then, in the name of Hades! Olympus! I accept this message!" Does anyone know what he says if you haven't reached the surface yet?

that is a good question

No clue. Maybe I can start up a new file and see if it's possible

an Olympian boss rush, with their favored c hampions
maybe have Persephone convert Zag's boons so he doesn't lose all of them? xD
supple dagger
if they add two more variants for Asphodel and Elysium, I wouldn't mind a boss rush... in a separate space of "Erebus"
mystic tusk
actually, humblebrag, I still haven't gotten the full red onion codex entry because Zag is too fantastic at what he does
it feels bad to have a completion context walled off based on the condition of failure
coarse stone
well to be fair, Zag's whole gimmick is literally charging ahead, getting killed, failing, and getting up just to do it again
=p

an incredibly fair point

biggest thing is to kill his casts. if they don't hit you they drop on the ground and explode after 5 seconds unless you kill them. if you end up in a situation where there's like 2 or 3 of them hanging around it gets really hard to dodge

dashing his slash is a timing thing, there are people much better fhan me at it, but I think the safer strategy is to wait and strike after he does it and gett away

second one is easier imo

I concur, in the first phase he spawns enemies, in tbe second it's all, uh, him

zenith leaf
honestly my strategy for him, every other enemy in the game, and every other enemy in any video game with a dash ever made is to just stay in his face and keep dashing behind him

that is a strategy you could have

that is an outlook on life you can have
